=== Blood Between Men ===
In the latter 7th century of the [[Sixth Astral Era]], the second migration of [[Hyur]] came upon [[Eorzea]], forcing [[Elezen]] from their lands and into [[the Black Shroud]]. The [[elementals]] looked upon these settlers as intruders, and sought to purge their presence from amongst the trees. Surviving accounts of this period describe chaos; the [[Elezen]] lacked knowledge of the elementals' existence, and knew not what attacked them. In time, they realised what had befallen their people, and sought respite from the merciless onslaught in the caverns deep beneath the forest. They escaped annihilation- but at the cost of many [[Elezen]] lives.
Fifty years later, population grown pushed the Hyur to enter the forest as well. Upon finding people already ensconced underground, they challenged the [[Elezen]] for ownership of the habitable caves. Quarrel soon led to conflict, and the two races came to cross blades time and again.
